Vireo flavifrons Vieillot

In 1963 (Friedmann, pp. 85–86) it was concluded that the frequency of cowbird parasitism on this vireo varied from place to place, but that quantitative data were still meager. It may be noted that the Ontario nest records files at Toronto reveal that 17 (32.7 percent) of 52 nests reported from the province were parasitized.
